As an Oklahoman, it represents OKC very well in ways I can't describe with words. Well done, Thunder.

Big time for Ball jars, in this age of pandemic homesteading. I get it.

Ball Arena is named after the canning jars and I can't possibly imagine a reason a canning car company needs to increase its brand awareness.

Ball hasn’t manufactured canning jars in quite some time. Most of their business is in aerospace manufacturing now, as well as trying to replace plastic cups with recyclable aluminum cups. They’re also one of Colorado’s largest employers.

 

Ball Arena sounds like a weird name at first, but there’s honestly no better ‘Colorado’ company to sell the rights to.

New sponsorship for the Celtics. Vistaprint is a local company, the logo doesn't look too bad in this mockup (though less natural than the GE logo felt). Not too surprised to see a change, GE's finances have been in rough shape for a while, probably due to wandering ideas like buying jersey sponsorships.

I never get over how out of place that black jersey looks next to their classics.

You're not wrong, but also, it doesn't look so bad if you had their City jerseys in that graphic too.

I see their jars in pretty much every store.  I bought a pack just a couple of months ago.  It's the only brand I've ever actually seen.

I think it really needs an outline of the Stax building to drive home the point. Otherwise, how would you know where it is.

I could be mistaken, but I believe Ball sold off its canning jar manufacturing business (as well as licensed out the name) awhile ago. So while the jars still say Ball, they’re made by a completely separate company.

If it's weird that I already miss GE logo? It should be adless at all but GE fitted better for them.

Yooooo Stax-inspired jerseys, these could be amazing if they do the great idea justice. So far so good for me at least.

The Celtics black statement is outright horrible. They should rather adopt the Adidas alternate instead if they insist on using black. This being said I think Vistaprint looks allright on the Celtics, however GE looked really nice. Excited for Stax, I've made a couple of Stax-inspired Memphis concepts myself so this will be interesting!

Could be worse: could be named after Lavar Ball...

We're really starting to stretch the use of the fire emoji pretty thin.

Better than “Talking Stick Resort Arena.” 

 

That was an especially confusing name considering that the resort has its own venue for shows. I was staying there with some friends, and one of them got excited about a concert that was happening one of the nights. Then we realized the show was at the arena downtown named after the resort, not at the actual resort.
